Thanks for your question ,
this is mostly sensory affection from your back problem
please do x ray and MRI on your lumbosacral spine.
You should receive NSAID and pregabalin 50 mg daily before sleep.

Hello,
Thank you for using healthcaremagic.
I read your question and understood your concern.
I think the most probable diagnosis is back pain related with discal hernia. I advise you to get a MRI of lower back and see a neurology specialist.
I wish you quick recovery.
Dr. Selmani
